Abstract

A housing for an electrochemical cell having at least a first electrode and a second electrode. The housing includes a lid having a first indentation to contact the first electrode, and a bottom having a second indentation to contact the second electrode. The first indentation has a first cross-section and the second indentation has a second cross-section. The first cross-section and the second cross-section get narrower as the first indentation and the second indentation progress into an interior of the housing.
